Senator Seliger to Host Town Hall Meetings throughout District 31

AMARILLO, Texas--State Senator Kel Seliger is embarking on his annual town hall meetings across Senate District 31. Seliger will be making stops in 26 counties over the next several weeks to visit with constituents throughout the Panhandle, South Plains and the Permian Basin about issues of concern to them in preparation for the 82nd Texas Legislature that convenes in January.

"These town hall meetings are a great opportunity for me to listen to the concerns of the citizens throughout this large district and see how we can address them in the upcoming legislative session," said Seliger.

"I would encourage the public to attend these meetings. Representing the 31st District is a joint effort, and the best way to represent people is the way in which they tell you."
